+== Optional New Naming Convention ==
+Available by re-swigging(sp?) with NEXT_GENERATION_NAMES swig -perl5 -shadow -DNEXT_GENERATION_NAMES mapscript.i
+
+== Example ==
+Here is a simple perl example that loads a mapfile, creates an image and saves it:
+{{{
+#!perl
+#!/usr/bin/perl -w
+use mapscript;
+#
+# Include XBase for access to XBase/DBF files.
+use XBase;
+#
+# Include DBI so XBase files can be queried in an SQL manner.
+use DBI;
+#
+# Start the map.
+my $map = new mapscript::mapObj('boundary.map') or die('Unable to open mapfile.');
+#
+# Render the map.
+my $img = $map->draw() or die('Unable to draw map');
+#
+# Save the rendered image.
+my $void = $img->save('example.png');
+}}}
